Aged Goat Cheese, Collados Cheese FactoryCollados Cheese Factory's aged cheese is made with pure goat's milk, a local product (from Granada) that guarantees the highest quality of its ingredients. The tradition in the process requires that it be done by hand and the herds are always in absolute freedom. And since it is 100% natural, this guarantees that its texture and flavor are wonderfully delicious.
The goats are happy and raised in freedom, and we find nuances of rosemary, thyme, lavender, rockrose, and other shrubby species from the Sierra Norte Granadina in both the milk and the cheese. Starting from this natural raw material, the cheese is made through a traditional process in which only rennet from kid goats and salt are added.

How do they make their cheeses?They start with 100% milk from Granadina Murcian goats, wonderful goats that graze happily (essential for the flavors of their beloved cheeses). They then curdle the milk and transform it into a new product: cheese. At each step, the raw material is always of the highest quality. They follow the traditional production process, to which they have added the necessary technological advances to ensure the product is top-notch. One of the key moments in the process is fermentation, where the magic happens.
The maturation of their cheeses ranges from 4 weeks to 8 weeks. The wait is worth it. From such a careful production process and such high-quality raw material, the final product is excellent: pressed paste cheeses with a tender rind and a touch of creaminess. If we add that consuming goat's milk and its derivatives reduces cholesterol, promotes the absorption of fats, proteins, calcium, and minerals, we have plenty of reasons to cut ourselves another slice of this wonderful cheese. Because where there is cheese, there is happiness.
The highest quality goats from Collados Cheese FactoryBecause Collados Cheese Factory's cheese is artisanal and comes from goats. And not just any goats, but the envy of goats, those that live freely in the Sierra de la Sagra, north of the province of Granada. This mountain range has always been a haven for goat livestock. The fact that goats graze happily on its slopes makes the milk they produce of the highest quality. And this is the basis for the production of their artisanal cheese.
They have goats of all kinds, some that pose for photos like true influencers, some that never stop all day (up on the slope, down on the slope), and some that enjoy eating gourmet pastures.
Quality raw materialThe farmers, in addition to being passionate about their work, are responsible for selecting their best specimens for breeding and milk production, thus maintaining the highest quality in our cheeses. They have always opted to use the best raw materials, which is why the goats from their farms have organic production certification.
